Rifna Begum

Head of Housekeeping

My name is Rifna. 

My journey in the care field began as far as 8 years ago, starting off a volunteer in the Maternity ward, to providing care in clients houses based in Swindon, making a huge move to London in 2022 and now working as a the head housekeeper & laundry for Westgate House care home. 

I like to spread passion wherever I go, treating every work place like a home and the people working with me as a family. 

Due to my work ethics and my drive to always work hard, it was only after a few months of working with Westgate House where I had gained my Head of Housekeeping role. 

This mindset of treating my work place like a home enables me to work hard and ensure my surroundings are always presentable, neat and free of any bacteria - just as anyone would do in their own homes.
